Hi missv. No you're not clutching at straws - it's not over til AF arrives. Take a few days off then retest. Also, as someone ttc for a while I recommend starting now to take notes of all symptoms, patterns etc. wish I had. It may be that you get slight cramps every month and always have but you haven't noticed as you've not been looking. Or whatever... I just wish I'd kept notes from the start and not just from now.

Writer it is our privilege to share your journey - ups and downs! Keep your chin up and keep using us to vent and share! Hope you're feeling better today.

For those asking about pregnacare issues this is basically what's happened to me, am never going to take them again and I wish af would hurry up!

Hi purple. I'm now 15dpo. Two FMU BFNs yesterday. No sign of AF. Previous minth's 40day cycle but usual 14day lp and ov-ed super early this minth so thiught cycle was shortening. No idea what's going on. Been taking folic acid since December - religiously since may. Am normal weight, eat ok, drink socially. Started doing more exercise (but always use stairs; dander round parks without losing breath). Not sure what's going on .... Any hints / tips welcome...

Purple. Link not working. Can you try again pls?

Missy totally agree with m33r about tracking symptoms etc. I now know by two days post ov if af is on her way. Doesn't always help to know that early but it has stopped me getting false hope after ttc for so long!

pregnacare review

M33r sorry you're in the same situation. My usual cycle is 23-25 days with ov on cd11 and a 14 day Luteal phase. I know I ovd this cycle as had 21 day bloods so at least that happened but it doesn't explain lots of bfns and an AWOL af!

I've had all the stuff checked I need to at the gps, don't drink much, don't smoke, exercise regularly, am not stressed, am right weight yada yada yada. It has been so weird this cycle as no af pains, no sore boobs, loads more pg symptoms than normal but no BFP sigh.

Hope we both get a BFP or af soon so we can move on to next cycle. I am resigned to it not happening now tbh... Dp has been ace but I am sick of the pressure it's been putting on us, even tho I am trying to be zen about it. Am going to ditch opks until new year and just chill out I think. I didn't really want to be ttc at nearly 40 but split with ex h three years ago and met new dp who has no kids two years ago and he really wants kids so I'm happy to try for him.

Morning! I'm still hoping for a few more bfps before the bus moves to Oct.

Thanks impatiently, I remember being really pleased when you got ur bfp and so glad all going well for you. A lady on another thread told me less chance of mc if conceive again within 6 mths of mc so im clinging to that.

Writer don't be so silly, everyone just wants it to be ok for you ((hugs))

Purple. Me too. It's not putting a strain on our relationship or anything but I have days where I just want to go to sleep and wait for tomorrow without speaking to anyone - usually around the last two days of 2ww. This can't be easy for DH as I'm usually very cheery but I just wish these days away and have nothing to say to anyone.

My DH (and me too) would both love to be pg and DH is sure we would go down ivf route (we've hSd to start to discuss) though I'm not sure it would be the right thing... I dunno. I just didn't think it's be this hard. I'm 30; he's 42 btw.

M33r no no strain here either thankfully and he's wonderfully pragmatic and supportive about it all. We don't want ivf but I do want to know if it's going to happen ever!! He's 40 and I am 39 so the odds are against us anyway. He's such an amazing step dad to my 10yo that I'd love him to have his own kid too.

I have everything crossed for you and should also say that it's great you guys have each other! My DH was kinda thinking when he hadn't met 'the one' (whatever that is??) by the time he was early 30s, it wasn't going to happen. Even though we don't have a baby (yet) I'm so lucky to have him (and hopefully he thinks the same!) :-) cor! I'm feeling the love this morning! Maybe I should stop posting in case I make us all sick - my way of keeping upbeat with my long cycles and BFNs. :-)

Morning ladies, well after a night of painful cramps I've woken up to nothing! What a load of crap!!

I can feel AF coming though just expect it to be a few days then off to the october bus I will go!!!

Cheesey. Try not to worry about another mc... Easier said than done but we're all routing for you!! You getting symptoms or are you feeling quite 'normal'?

Congratulations on the bfp cheesy

writer hope things start to improve for you soon!

Hope the rest of you waiting get bfps soon!

purple thank you for posting that review, I ha no idea something 'natural' could cause such effects.

Thanks m33r, not loads of symptoms, but some. Tummy bloating has gone but still getting some twinges in boobs and my mouth is so dry if I didn't know better id think id been out drinking last night, lol.

I'm glad you have such a lovely dh to support you, not sickly, just great I so hope both you and purple get ur bfps soon.

Cheesy, I'm not getting any symptoms, either, unless you count catching a stonking cold

I'm really hoping it's not just the vitamins doing this to you girls, I'm hoping it's that you're pg, but just not registering on tests yet. I know someone who had BFNs everyday until 18dpo.

Wispa. I'm holding on for a bfp at more than 15dpo but think I'm dreaming! Thanks though!

AF due today or tomorrow, no sign of her yet but still holding off on testing, can't tell my DP of another BFN so close to the end of my cycle. Will probably test Monday or Tuesday if she stays away.

Fx everyone who is still waiting :)

I didn't get a bfp til cd40 last time! My cycles had been 35 days and 28 days so god knows what happened that last cycle! Fingers crossed for your bfps!! There's still hope while the witch is away :)

Thanks choccy! Holding out for it and not going to test again until cd 41...

Well af arrived two days early for me. Been in pain and its really heavy. Congrats to all the bfps so far & fingers crossed for those still waiting. I may give October a miss & just see what happens. Its getting me down seeing af every month & obsessing about symptoms isnt helping . Good luck ladies.

Choccy and wispa that gives me hope but I'm resigned to it being a weird cycle tbh. Ho hum.

M33r it's lovely to have so much support and be in love isn't it

Sorry monkette. How long you being trying? You ttc #1?

Oops meant to say I endured 20 years in an awful and abusive relationship with my ex so didn't know actual love existed. Am v happy it does tho!
